A: A device that converts solar energy to electricity.
Q: Why use solar energy?
A: It is a renewable source of energy that is not a dirty fossil fuel and it better for the environment.
Q: Why is solar energy not already your main solar of electricity?
A: Currently finding a way to make a solar cell that supplies enough energy for the planet while remaining cost efficient has been a struggle. With further experimentation to find the best method to create a cell that will do this is the ultimate goal of this project and many others like it.
Q: How will the project goals be completed in 10 weeks?
A: We have created a project timeline, where over the course of 10 weeks we will complete specific tasks to achieve our project goals, as shown below. These weekly goals are not concrete, but more so to make the project flow smoothly.
